I’m An S-Rank Behemoth Monster - Chapter 61

Chapter 61 : The Abnormal Situation of The Highway

「Come to think of it, may I ask a question? 」

「What could it be, Aria-san?　I’ll do my best to answer your question.」

Reis replied with bright smile on his face when Aria tried to ask him.

Their journey was going well.

Severals monsters such as goblins ambushed them along the way, but Tama swept them clean with his 《Elemental Roar》 before Aria and co came forward to take care of them.

Today was the second night of their journey.

Currently, the sound of crackling bonfire became the backround theme song to accompany everyone dinner.

According to the schedule, they were going to arrive at Gladdstone just before noon as long as nothing happened along their journey.

That aside, the topic was back to Aria question.

「It’s about the skeleton of that earth dragon, what are you going to do with it?　I’ve heard about your bidding price for that skeleton, but………. O don’t think you’ll gain much profit from that.」

It’s unbecoming of an adventurer to dwell too deeply about this matter to the one who make this comission to them.

But, she understood that Reis was a good person during the two days journey along with him.

She felt that it’ll be okay to ask him about this matter.

「Yeah, but……….. Please keep this matter as a secret, my acquaintance arms dealer has told me that this is the raw materials for weapons. And I felt that there’ll be a big war in the near future………….」

「I see, I guess that’s a trade secret, right………」

Aria consented in hearing Reis reply.

A big fight………… It might be the dispute between nobles, or countries.

Many big merchant usually knew of such information from their connection, and treat them as an absolute secret.

Though it was a vague information, she already heard about that.

And that was plenty enough for Aria.

（If a big war going to happen, it’ll be following by a false charge………..）

Aria was looking down as she imagine such situation.

She;ll fight for justice as long as it was fighting monster or demons.

But, the same things won’t happen if it was a fight against the fellow people.

Aria sense of justice were conflicted as she doesn’t know where she must go.

「Nya~n…………」

「Fufufu, are you trying to comforting me?　Tama is really cute after all.」

Tama whose mouth stuffed with grilled meat was looking at Aria depressed state, climbing on her laps and then rubbed his head to her stomach.

Smiling lightly, Aria brushed Tama head with affectionate face.

「Gumumumu………. What so good about that weak woman.」

Looking at Tama and Aria who creating their own world, Stella was stuffing herself with grilled meat as she muttered so in vexed tone.

Ever since then, Stella couldn’t even get the chance to hug Tama, even once.

Because Aria couldn’t let her guard down against Stella who was looking at Tama as a man.

「Nevertheless, that Elemental Cat is really wise, don’t you think so?」

Reis asked so as he looked at Tama and Aria flowery exchange.
